Chapter Sixteen: Himuro Sensei's school days arc (Mission Impossible)
The Betrayal
On the streets of Tokyo
Himuro stood on the side block of Tokyo's street, and Takuma stood some distance apart from her. She looked dissappointed but not surprised, she had heard the news from Sensei Rikuya who heard from his high ups, the government. She was greatly dissappointed at what her close friend did. Killing innocent people and feeling no remorse.
Takuma looked happy with a grin on his face. He stood straight, hands in his trouser pockets, head up but tilted a little, not minding Himuro's presence.
People passed by them one by one, covering the distance between them.
The streets were busy and alot of people were on the side block. They couldn't possibly fight there.
Shinji on the other hand was taken to Majutsu High's secret chamber, to be kept safe there until the bounty on his head was removed or, until he wasn't a target anymore.
"Where's your little boyfriend Himuro?" Takuma asked mockingly.
Himuro didn't answer, her eyes were closed yet she could see exactly where he was. She stood hands behind her back in her normal Majutsu High uniform holding her casual stylish posture.
"Why did you kill those people?" she asked.
Takuma smirked at those words and spoke.
"Because, they were evil, of what use are they anyway?" he replied
"How were they evil Takuma? How?" Himuro asked
"They are evil because they are the real sources or curses and demons, isn't it obvious? For this world to be free, non-sorcerors have to die, they must die," his voice tone and demeanor changed to a evil expression.
"But we are here to protect them from such evil, there are also good people in the midst of evil people, and negative emotions are almost inevitable,"
"That's why they must die," Takuma uttered.
"This is not the way or solution, there must be another way,"
"Like what Himuro? What is the other way? It's either you work with me or..... against me,"
Himuro opened her eyes, staring at him for a while. Then she spoke:
"You have been sentenced to death, I was sent to kill you but—," she paused a little.
"But what Himuro? You can't get yourself to kill me huhn? Too bad, so sad," takuma turned about to leave.
"If you don't mind, I have other things to do, see you later Himu,"
Himuro couldn't speak or move, she was obviously sad and disappointed in Taking. They were really close that other classmates of theirs thought they were dating.
She stood in the midst of the crowd for a while before heading to Majutsu High.
THE REDEMPTION COUNCIL BUILDING
Taking entered the Redemption council's building walking towards a man dressed in black suit.
"Hello," he uttered
The man looked at him noticing that he was a Majutsu High's student.
"What are you doing here you brat?" the man yelled.
"Get out of here if you don't want to die. You are the one that beat up one of my soldiers aren't you, what are you doing here?" He yelled further.
"Calm down, I'm with you now," Takuma replied
"What? What are you yammering about?" The suited man asked
"Look, I'm sorry about your soldier. I came with a proposal for your master, the demon king,"
"And what is that?" he asked
"I'm sorry but that highly classified information,"
"Okay, follow me," the man in suit guided him to the realm of the Demon King.
They entered an elevator and it speed down in to the ground.
THE ABYSS
(500 MILES UNDER THE REDEMPTION COUNCIL'S BUILDING)
The environment was a reddish dark world, red skies, dangerous curses and creatures lurked here and there. Some we're were special grades while others were of lower grades.
The man in suit guided him to a tall mansion like building guarded by a special graded curse who was 12ft tall and muscular.
He spoke to the man in suit.
"Who is this man you've brought here? What is his business here?" It's eyes were locked on Takuma's but Takuma didn't even flinch. He knew he couldn't go back from the decision he had made.
"He's here in an official business with the King, he has a proposal that involves the target of the King," said the man in suit.
"Then, welcome. Thread with care, my Lord is not to be reckoned with, make a mistake and you die," said the curse opening the entrance door.
They walked into the room, it was like a big hall, full of only Special graded curses and demons, sighting and watching Takuma closely as if they wanted to eat him up.
Takuma looked up at the King of Demons. He was a 30ft demon sitting on a large throne fully blocked with thick red fog leaving only his glowing red eyes visible.
He spoke
"Young man, why have you brought this human to me? Do you have a death wish?" his voice was sinister and dark, voice echoing throughout the chamber.
"My Lord," said the man in suit bowing down signalling to Takuma to do the same.
"I'm sorry my Lord, I've brought him here because he has a proposal for you,"
"And what proposal is that?" his voice became louder and more terrifying.
"My Lord, if I may speak," Takuma answered.
"I want something from you, power and alliance to destroy and wipe out all humans and non sorcerors that will go against you,"
"And why should I help you," asked the Demon King.
"Because I know where Shinji, your prime target is. I can bring him to you," Takuma offered.
The demon king paused for a while looking at his general who gave him an advisory look and then spoke.
"If you can bring him here alive or dead, I will help you. You have my word, but, if you fail, I'll take your life away from you and feed your body to my subjects. Deal?"
"Deal, you'll have him before the sun goes down, that's a promise," said Takuma.
"But, what of his brother? Where is the child?" The Demon King asked
"The child was lost when shinji ran from you. Yeah, he told us the whole story. That child must be dead by now," said Takuma making his way for the door.
"Just bring the boy to me and you'll get your wish,"
"Your wish is my command, My Lord,"
